Save to Favorites

The Placentia Library District is very proud of its talented and dedicated volunteers. With the guidance and support of the Library staff, volunteers extend the reach of the Library. The Placentia Library is always on the lookout for energetic and committed people to join our team of volunteers.

Volunteers provide the much needed support to the library services, events and patrons who depend on our services. Last year our volunteers gave over 17,800 hours of service to the library. That translates to over $470,000 worth of cost savings!
